[applause] i have been quite shocked by the of lawlessness of the administration by legislating around congress in a way that i think is clearly unconstitutional. for example, passing the dream act. however you stand on the dream at, i should be done by congress and not by the administration. and it did that. because if a conservative had decided to restrict the irs that it would no longer collect capital gains tax, which is a way to enact the capital gains tax elimination without congress, we would all be astonished by that and clearly say that you cannot do it. but that is what the dream that was. similarly, with the attempt by the hhs to pass regulations, which undermines the will -- the climate in welfare, which was one of the great successes of the policy in the 1990's. i don't know if there will be challenged
